My Passion and Venture as an Artist

Each and every person has his own innate gifts. There are people who have the natural ability to lead people, there are great public speakers, and there are people with great musical abilities to name a few. Perhaps, I can say that mine is creating art.

My love for creative expression.

When I was younger, I admit that I was an 'average joe' in school, though I excel at times but it wasn't consistent. I didn't excel at a regular basis, well, not in a scholastic sense. However, I could say that visual arts are my main comfort zone.I have noticed since I was younger that I do have an easy time expressing myself through my creations, long before I expressed my thoughts through writing, before I've scribbled rough drafts and articles. I've self thought into drawing, painting, sculpting and create anything crafty. I do have an innate sense of conceptualizing artistic designs.Since I realized that I do have limitations such as public speaking, I have thought that I rather capitalize on the things I feel and think I’m good at. And that is through creating art. And most important of all, something I love to do most.I was dreaming of having an art gallery and exhibit and attain fame and fortune from it.Today, I’m still longing to chase this dream. My main aim is to create art and earn from it. Because I believe that you’re defeating your purpose as an artist and your putting your art in vain if create something yet have an empty stomach. I want to challenge the myth of “the starving artist”. Because I believe that if you have the passion to do something, as long as you keep on going, you’ll eventually and hopefully earn from it.I don't have an exact idea how will it be, but it could be through printing wearable things or producing functional yet stylish objects.I want to merge my ability to create art with my entrepreneurial aspirations, and that I think is the main formula to fulfill my dream and for the success I’ve been longing to achieve.As the business adage goes, “do what you love and the money will follow”. This I think is doable, to turn my art into a profitable venture, as it is only limited with my imagination.
